My Wife Is My Life!

Chapter 294 They Must Get It

In the end, Vana and Vivian inquired about the price of the antiques. Unexpectedly, the old man who

had been good at telling stories about antiques suddenly became unhappy. He said with a bad temper,

"Didn't you say that you would buy antiques elsewhere? Then why are you asking me that? You know

what, not for sale, not for sale. You'd better leave now. Don't get in the way of me and my antiques."

'Well, the old man changed his tune so fast.'

But it was also Vana's fault that she had said something serious in order to make this old man take out

his treasures. At this time, the old man was probably really angry.

Vana had no choice but to tell him the truth, "I said I wanted to go to another antique shop just to let

you take out these treasures. If I didn't say those words to provoke you, how could you let us see these © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

treasures?"

The old man understood what Vana meant, but he still insisted, "Now that you have seen them, it's time

for you to leave."

Vana and Vivian felt a little upset. It seemed that this old man didn't really want to sell these things. He

just wanted the two girls to broaden their horizons. And Vana and Vivian didn't expect him to be so fond

of showing off.

'Are the elderly people nowadays so high-profile? How naughty he is!'

"Sir, I think you have been keeping these treasures for more than half of your life. If we don't see so

many treasures, we won't be able to know their value and meaning. And they will lose the value of

themselves. In fact, I don't mean to ask you to sell them to us. We just want to pass on the art, so that

more people can understand it. Isn't it a better thing for them to exist?"

Vivian's words made the old man stop his wild behavior for the time being. Vana also knew that she

had to obey the old man at this time, so she patiently comforted him, "Sir, you have worked hard to

keep these treasures for more than half of your life. You just want to be able to understand them and let

them keep their value, right? You don't have to sell these treasures because you know they are

valuable. But are you really willing to watch them being hidden in this place without being discovered

by others? The more people know about them, the more surprises they will bring to H Country. They

can even show the pride of H Country to the people all over the world. These are rare treasures that

will never be surpassed."

The old man seemed to be moved by the two people's words. His hair trembled slightly, and then his

fingers that were stroking those things also trembled silently in excitement.

It seemed that the old man had been persuaded by them. As long as they insisted, Vana and Vivian

would definitely get a satisfactory birthday gift from this old man.

"You... I know what you're talking about, but how many people can cherish these things? I'm afraid that

the traitors in H Country will sell these things abroad for fame and fortune. Then it will be more difficult

to take them back."

Vana and Vivian immediately smiled. Then Vana said, "Don't worry. Our grandfather is a soldier of H

Country. He is doing something to defend the country. How could he sell such rare treasures to

someone abroad?"

When the old man heard this, he nodded his head with understanding. After a long time, he gradually

calmed down. Then he looked at the two people in front of him naughtily, "It's okay if you want me to

endure the pain and give them to you, but you two have to find something comparable to these

treasures to exchange."

"What? We can give you money. Name a price and we can give you a price you are satisfied with."

Vivian's words were ignored by the old man. The old man began to drive the two of them away with a

feather duster. And the old man muttered, "How much do I want? Do you think I'm a money-grubber?

Let me tell you, if you don't give me your treasures in exchange, you won't be able to get my

treasures."

When these words were finished, Vana and Vivian had been driven out of the antique shop by the old

man.

Standing on the street, Vana and Vivian suddenly felt a little helpless. At this time, the middle-aged

woman selling insoles across the street saw Vana and Vivian come out. "What's wrong? He kicked you

out again?"

Vana and Vivian immediately said, "Madam, do you know why the old man has such a strange temper?

And why doesn't he sell what we want to buy? Isn't he doing business?"

The middle-aged woman put the colorful insoles on the top. "He is not short of money. He has a lot of

sons and daughters, and he can enjoy his life at home. But as you can see, he is stubborn and

unreasonable, so who can stop him from doing this business? Well, I won't say it anymore. If he heard

me speaking ill of him behind his back, he would come out and yell at me."

After saying that, the middle-aged woman quickly took out the things that Vana and Vivian had stored

here before. Seeing that the woman was quite enthusiastic, Vana and Vivian were about to take over

the things to thank her and leave. Unexpectedly, the woman blocked the hands of the two. "You two

beauties, why don't you buy two pairs of insoles before you leave?"

'Uh... It seemed that this madam was not to be trifled with.'

So the two young and fashionable women, Vana and Vivian, bought six pairs of insoles and left. The

color of the insoles was really eye-catching. Vana was still wondering what kind of shoes could match

such high-grade insoles.

However, another thing that bothered Vana and Vivian was what the old man said in the end. Vana and

Vivian had to find something that was equivalent to those antiques to get the birthday gift they wanted.

Considering that the price of antiques might be very high, Vana and Vivian just decided to buy the

same meaningful gift. Moreover, the two of them didn't have much money. Vana just began to save

money, so she couldn't buy a decent gift at one time. Although Vivian came from a good family, her

family had been educated to be upright and honest since childhood, and Vivian's money was all saved

up by the motorcycle race. It was impossible for the two of them to buy gifts alone.

In the end, the two of them decided to try their best to get what they wanted. Besides, Vivian's

grandfather was very old, so they two had to buy a decent gift no matter what.

After making up her mind, Vana had to go back for the commercial shooting in the afternoon, so she

and Vivian parted at the exit of DDH Mall.
